I am still wrapping my head around gender politics as well. Like how being gender non-conforming or non-binary relates to being trans. If gender is only performative then why do people transition? Why do they say they just feel 'better' after the transition or feel like the real them? Are they just trying to fit society's idea of what they should be? Or is there an intrinsic benefit for them?

Honestly for you I would post in a forum for people transitioning and ask these kinds of questions well...the last few paragraphs at least. But maybe people have some books for you to read. Otherwise the idlethumbs forum or the Waypoint forum might be better to ask the difference between being gender non-conforming and transitioning.

For me personally, If you think being male is a construct then being female is a construct too, then why would it matter what genitals you have? So yeah, I would ask some advice from some trans people before deciding to transition.

I think video games is accurate for a lot of games but I do believe there should be a new name for games like Gone Home or What remains of Edith Finch or the interactive painting thing in VR. Games that don't have a Win or Lose or any sort of "game" aspect to them.

Visual Novels are an example of this. I don't think anyone mixes Visual novels in with Video games anymore. Interactive experiences, or something catchier, should be the same thing. A new category that can have new genres.

That's my guess too.

Same here.

I've been trying to make a pick pocket rogue for a while now. These look like they might finally make that possible. It's not competitive but hopefully fun.

I hope Ben makes the DnD thing happen.

Yeah waiting for the archive too.

Vampire the masquerade bloodlines. I've played up to getting to the second city so many times. Every time I take a break there and don't pick it up until a couple of years later.

New episode is up!
